I saw the part of the interview when the guest doctor asked him point blank "you're a cardiologist, Dr. Oz, what do you prescribe?". He did hesitate and then gave the answer he thought the guest wanted to hear. I've lost alot of respect for him. No, I've lost all respect for him because he's not being a true doctor. He's in it for the $$.
